Abstract
A digital programmable smart card terminal device and token collectively known as the token device is disclosed. The token device comprises a field programmable token device which accepts a user's smart card. The combination of token device and smart card may then be used for a variety of applications that include user authentication, secure access, encryption. One specific application is that of an electronic wallet. In one embodiment, an electronic smart card terminal includes a smart card reader adapted to receive and communicate with a smart card having smart card data stored thereon; token personality logic programmed based on the smart card data as a token personality subsequent to insertion of the smart card in the smart card reader; and a communications mechanism for communicating authentication data derived from the token personality. Since the smart card terminal only gains its token personality when a smart card is inserted, manufacture and distribution of the terminal on a wide scale is possible.
